    So how did the army of a country that is neutral in all wars develop such a cool knife?

    Thanks to that knife, maybe, people let them alone and they manage to lead a neutral life.

    Hehe, clever Scheher...

    Almost all my friends and I have Swiss army knives, a couple are that big, most of them not so much...they're just nice to have, really. My one plumber friend has a big one like that and says he uses it for work. I had a great laugh one day when some friends of my boyfriend's family were visiting here from...you guessed it....Switzerland...and they saw mine and started exclaiming "Look! A Swiss army knife! Where did you get that?!?!"

    Macgyver

    talking about gadgets do any of you remember Macgyver from the early 80's.
    He was so cool with knives and gadgets.

    Macgyver scares me because he was decidedly before my time, and I've never watched an episode, yet I know exactly who he is in my head.

    Talking

    Yo, since today is Halloween, anybody spy a pair of pale green pants with nobody inside 'em?
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Is Halloween today?? My brother who is in the US went to a halloween party on Sunday. Is it celebrated onky in the US??

    I dont know a thing about this ocassion, except that it has to do something with scary creatures (I could be wrong on this one too), as he was invited to a haunted house, which was the theme of the party. It sounds interesting.

    Halloween is awesome!! is it October 31st where you are? (that's the day Halloween is on.) it's an occasion where kids dress up in costumes, usually as monsters or scary creatures, but girls often dress up as fairies and princesses and such (and i, conformer to the last, wear animal skulls and shaman costumes . . . ), and when it gets dark, they go around knocking on doors and asking for candy. (when you ask, you say "trick or treat!" because if you don't get treats, you're supposed to play tricks on the people, like toilet papering their house ). it's also supposed to be about scaring people, so you go to haunted houses and sometimes decorate your house with fake skeletons and spiderwebs and other scary things.

    it's really fun!
